I guide clients in accepting their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them or feeling guilty about them.

Therapy style

My therapy style is heavily based on the client-counselor relationship and daily application. Incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I guide clients in accepting their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them or feeling guilty about them. We work together on committing to actions that align with their values, fostering a more meaningful and fulfilling life. Therapy is a lot of work, and there will be days when it gets rough to work through everything, but it’s worth it.

Approaches

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Interests

Outside of work, I generally keep a tight regimen of lifting, training Muay Thai, and going to Punk Rock shows. I also like to snowboard and paint on the weekends.
